Now it's Pedroia who's cooled off -- maybe we need to figure out a way to get him back in the 2 hole. Who pitches the 8th and 9th? Might we see Bard have a chance for a save? Or maybe Masterson to pitch 2 innings?

Since I haven't been able to see his last few starts, I'd love to know what is different. Is he spotting the fastball? Is he getting that extra 4MPH of giddyup that he didn't have in April and early May? Are he in Tek just in a groove? Thoughts? "Things happen in Boston." -Joe Morgan

Edit: Tek just couldn't stay away from the change up could he, thankfully Stairs didn't get all of it.

Veteran Member Posts: 3697 06/12/09 8:55 PM Veteran Member	Now I very rarely knock Francona, but if Paps wasn't available tonight, then the situation begged to have a RHP pitch the 8th - pick among Ramirez/Masterson/Bard and Oka to be in to face Utley/Howard/Stairs. This just didn't make any sense. I ask again - has Masterson been taken to the Planet Zebulon? Where the heck IS this guy? Injury we don't know about, maybe?

Edit: I'm not sure what the answer to my question is, but that strikeout of Victorino was hilarious... even Wakefield doesn't get swings like that.
